9 Principles to Design the Future of Learning

Technological tsunami will revolutionise our next 20 years at an exponential rate. The concept of a “100 year life” becoming the norm, and the majority of that spent studying and working, mean that learning will
be a lot more important in an accelerating way. Most people will have at least 6 different careers, requiring fundamental reeducating, whilst the relentless speed of innovation will constantly demand new skills
and knowledge to keep pace. A report by the World Economic Forum reveals that
almost 65 per cent of the jobs elementary school students will be doing in the future do not even exist yet.
